Segmenting logic apps into discrete microservices
Deployed individually
Resume from failure
Patterns of flows – similar with different properties for actions
Can handle different properties based on metadata
Decouple onboarding from platform
High through put scenario hence, we chose small sequential actions v/s large number of parallel actions

Azure downtime impact on business
Active/Passive
deploy and provision in both regions
Use gateway for failover to DR

12. Learnings There are published limits for LAs; understand what they are
Consider the nature of flows you will create – high throughput or long running workflows
Leverage the platform as much as possible for concurrency (SplitOn v/s ForEach)
Understand the structure and behavior of your data (Batched v/s non-batched)
Consider a SxS strategy to enable test in production
In LA your delivery options are – ‘at least once’ or ‘at most once’ (not ‘only once’)
